Rope, I understand your sentiments, just cautioning about using too much exposure to what is effectively a protective asset. What people need to...
Yes, as Mat says Gordian III is a popular first ancient. Congrats. My advice would be to learn as much as you can. I would look for a 1988 version...

I started under the age of 30 Ripley. I am over 40 now, but it comes and goes as interests in different series change. Right now I am debating...
I agree artwork on Celtic is amazing, but for "hot chick" I would vote Larissa 3/4 facing portraits. Very classy.
